Suitable for use on both internal and external walls and floors, Pro Board is waterproof and therefore suitable for use in showers, steam rooms, pools and spas. The boards may be screw fixed or laid into cement-based adhesive. Joints between the boards should be taped using Norcros Pro Board tape. In wet areas tape joints between boards using the Norcros Waterproofing tape.

Q : Can the norcros pro board be used as a backing board to screw into the brickwork of a chimney breast to then apply heavy split face slate tiles onto to strengthen and take the weight of the tiles so they don't pull away from the wall and fall off.

Advice

Thank you for your question. Yes, our pro insulation boards can be used as baker boards, and can take the weight of up to 85kg, so there should be no issue as long as they are firmly secured to the wall. If you would like further advice please call 01782 223822 or email and we will be happy to help.

Q : Is 10mm proboard suitable to lay on 18mm ply on a suspended wooden floor to stop deflection?

Advice

Thank you for your question. The Pro Insulation Board 600x1200 10mm can be laid on the 18mm ply but it would not stop deflection in any way. The only way to stop deflection is to make the floor stronger by using a tile backer board or a anti fracture membrane, the one we supply is Permalayer SKU 434975. If you would like any further advice please call 01782 223822 or email and we will be happy to assist.

Q : what is the best method of fixing the wedi board to wooden floorboards and screed

Advice

Thank you for your question. We would recommend that the pro board be fixed to floorboards with screws and washers spaced at no more than 300mm centres. When fixing to a screed, the boards can be laid in to a bed of suitable adhesive which can be determined once the makeup of the screed is confirmed. If you would like any further technical information, please do not hesitate to contact ourselves on 01782 223822 where one of our friendly team members will be more than happy to assist you.
